It’s music that is gradually gaining momentum across the Channel. David Raya’s performances in Arsenal’s goals are increasingly being questioned, while his match against Chelsea this weekend (2-2) did not convince observers. He was notably at fault on the Blues’ second goal.
In competition with Aaron Ramsdale, who started his position last season, the Spanish goalkeeper is under pressure. But for Mikel Arteta, present at a press conference on the eve of the match against Sevilla in the Champions League, his goalkeeper is capable of handling this situation. “It’s the pressure of big clubs where you have to win, where you have to be at the top level and where there is someone behind you who pushes you every day,” replied the Spanish coach.
A situation in which Mikel Arteta put him, who chose to recruit him this summer, from Brentford and to set up strong competition with Aaron Ramsdale. Visibly annoyed to answer questions on this subject, Mikel Arteta defended his choice to set up competition for this position. “It’s a debate and that’s also the beauty of the game. And the fact that you have several options will make these discussions more frequent. » The debate is therefore not over.
